Description: This evocative photograph captures the bustling atmosphere of Lisbon's Mercado da Praca da Figueira in the 1910s. The covered market, located in the heart of the city, was a beloved institution that brought together locals and travelers alike to experience the vibrant sights, sounds, and smells of Portugal's rich culinary traditions. 3.
